Fit a global model with all of the data

First, fit a LASSO regression model using the glmnet R package

  • This regression is a beta glm with a logit link (using custom function from Daniel)
  • Use cross validation across level 2 ecoregions to tune the lambda parameter in the LASSO model
  • this model is fit to using the scaled weather/climate/soils variables
  • this list of possible predictors includes:
    1. main effects
    2. interactions between all soils variables
    3. interactions between climate and weather variables
    4. transformed main effects (squared, log-transformed (add a uniform integer – 20– to all variables prior to log-transformation), square root-transformed (add a uniform integer – 20– to all variables prior to log-transformation))

Get rid of transformed predictions and interactions that are correlated

# get first pass of names correlated variables

 # update the vector of names to remove 
 badNames <- unique(c(badNames, corrNames_i[!(corrNames_i %in% prednames)]))
}

## see if there are any correlated variables left (would be all main effects at this point)
# if there are, step through and remove the variable that each is most correlated with 
if (length(corrNames_i)>1) {
  for (i in 1:length(corrNames_i)) {

The internal cross-validation process to fit the global LASSO model identified an optimal lambda value (regularization parameter) of r{print(best_lambda)}. The lambda value such that the cross validation error is within 1 standard error of the minimum (“1se lambda”) was `r{print(fit$lambda.1se)}`` . The following coefficients were kept in each model:
